Objective To detemine the effect of autografts of in-vitro cultured corneal limbal stem cells for treating pterygium. Methods A total of 11 cases (12 eyes) with pterygium were treated with autograft of in-vitro cultured corneal limbal stem cells and were followed-up for 6-15 months. Results During the follow-up pterygium recurred in 1 eye (8.33 %) . All of the grafts survived well and no immunological rejection or other complication occurred. Conclusion Autograft of in vitro cultured corneal limbal stem cells is an effective and valuable method to treat pterygium.

Objective To observe the time of occurance,morphologic characteristics,and development of the retinal neurons' apoptosis of the early phase indiabetic rats. Design Experimental study. Participants Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Methods In 36 male SD rats of 8-week old,18 were diabetic models induced by streptozotocin injection,and 18 normal ones as control. Each group were subdivided into 3 groups (each group,n=6),in which the rats were sacrificed at 4,8 and 12 weeks,respectively. The pathological change of the retina,and the retinal neurons ultrastructure were observed. Apoptosis of the retinal neurons was also examined by TdT-mediated dUTP nick end label (TUNEL) assay. Main Outcome Measures The pathological retinal structure,the ultrastructure of retinal neurons,and the apoptosis of the retinal neurons in each group. Results No obvious structural changes of retina were found pathologically in diabetic rats of 4-week and 8-week,comparing with age-matched control group. However decreased retinal ganglion cell number and thinner inner nuclear layer were observed in diabetic rats of 12 weeks. Apoptosis defined by electron microscope,including cell shrinkage,reduced cell volume,chromatin margination and nuclear shrinkage and collapse,was found in each subgroup of diabetic rats. Apoptosis in the retinal ganglion cells layer and the inner nuclear layer was dominant. The apoptosis of the retinal neurons by TUNEL assay occurred at 4 weeks after onset of diabetes,and the number of the apoptosis neurons increased at 8 and 12 weeks in diabetic rats,the apoptosis neurons mainly located in the retinal ganglion cells layer and the inner nuclear layer. Conclusion Apoptosis of the retinal neurons occurred at 4 weeks after onset of diabetes and the degree of the apoptosis was correlated with the process of disease in rat model.

Objective To develop-the rat model of diffuse brain injury(DBI)and to observe the pathophysio logical alteration of the rats after.traumatic injury.Methods A modified Marmarou's traumatic device W88 used to establish the animal model of diffuse brain injury with different degree through changing the impact condition that was applied on the rat brain(including 80cm 450g,120 cm 450g and 180cm 400g);the animal model was evaluated by observing the variations of nervous system signs,vital signs,sensorimotor function,and morphological changes of brain tissue in the rats that have received different impacts.Results The significant changes in nervous system signs,vital signs and sensorimotor function had been observed in all rats that were subjected to the different impact.The pathologic changcs of DBI in rats brain could he found in all groups.Moreover,this characteristic changes would have became more significant following the traumatic iaiury when the impact energy was increased.Conclusion The rat model of graded diffuse brain injury have been developed successfully.The moderate impact(120cm 450g)could produce low animal death rate and result in obvious pathologieal alterations in the injured rat brain.This impact condition would be suitable to be used in the study about DBI.

Atherosclerosis is the important pathologic basis of coronary artery disease,cerebrovascular disease,peripheral arterial disease and other vascular diseases.Studies have shown that the atheromatous plaques occur mainly in regions of curvature,bifurcation,and branching of the artery,indicating that low flow shear stress is closely associated with the occurrence of atherosclerosis.Low flow shear stress involves in the induction of atherosclerosis through acting on mechanosensitive molecules in endothelial cell that transduce mechanical stimuli into chemical signals,activate the corresponding intracellular signaling pathways.This article reviews the relationship between low flow shear stress and atherosclerosis.

Objective To investigate the effect of pretreatment of pioglitazone on acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) rats. Methods ANP was induced by retrograde injection of 5% sedinm deoxycholate into bilio-pancreatic ducts. The animals were randomly divided into ANP (n=18), sham operation (n=18) and pioglitazone pretreatment group (n=18). Pioglitazone was given 20 mg/kg in pioglitazone group before ANP was induced. The rats were sacrificed 3 h, 6 h, 12 h after ANP induction, respectively. Bblood samples were taken for serum amylase measurement. Tissue samples of pancreas were harvested for morphological observation under conventional light microscopy. Pathological change of pancreas was evaluated by Hughes and Kusske score system. Results The concentration of serum amylase and the pancreatic histological score in pioglitazone and ANP groups were significantly higher than those in sham operation group (P<0.001 ). The concentration of serum amylase, Hughes and Kusske score in pioglitazone group at 12 h after ANP induction were (2980± 1080) U/L,4.50±2.07 and 7.50±1.05, respectively, and were lower than (7598±1072) U/L, 7.17±1.47 and 11.33±1.75 of ANP group at 12 h (P<0.01). Conclusions Pioglitazone pretreatment could decrease the serum level of amylase and the pancreatic histological score. Pioglitazone may ameliorate the severity of ANP.
